Fixed a problem with the qm.maint clean command on unix platforms where it
would sometimes not delete/hold any of the messages that it should have
based on the criteria. [Solaris and Tru64 only] (D/E 10298)
Installation
------------
OpenVMS
Copy the image to the PMDF_EXE: directory
Ensure it has the same ownership and security/access as the previous
version.
Then, issue the command:
